Safe Caramel Dip?

[hezzier]

I am looking for a safe store bought caramel sauce/dip for apples.  I haven't looked around yet.  Suggestions?

[YouKnowWho]

Unless something has changed, Marzettis is mum on the manufacturing process because the FDA said that was acceptable.  Guess which brand I don't use. 

Beyond that I am of little help because my kids would rather dip apples in ketchup

Apples in ketchup    Ewwwww

[maeve]

We've used Smucker's caramel (though not to dip apples in).  Southern Living has several caramel and apple recipes this month.

We've used smuckers as well.

Just saw Sweet Lava brand, manufactured by Walmart (huge display in deli) with no warning.  Might be worth investigating.

[hezzier]

Thanks, will have to check it out.

[joshsmom]

I make my own. It is easy.

[hezzier]

I'm sure it's better too, but I am looking for a commercially prepared product.

[hezzier]

I have a call into Walmart about their Sweet Lava.

YKW...is there a certain number you usually call to check walmart products?

[YouKnowWho]

Just whatever number is on the package.

[hezzier]

There was no phone number

[hezzier]

I finally got a phone call back after I had to call again.  I was told the Sweet Lava product contains no tree nuts, does not share a line with tree nuts and the plant it's made is also free of tree nuts.

So we will give it a try this weekend on some apples.

They didn't happen to mention whether it was x-contaminated with peanuts did they?

[hezzier]

She did not mention anything about peanuts.  Sorry
